New SF/F author website: Kristine Kathryn Rusch
March 14th 2008 at 12:30 am
Kristine Kathryn Rusch has a new website, including RSS feed. She’s not blogging as such, but using a blog to power updates about her upcoming fiction and so on.
A nice example of using some of the concepts Cory Doctorow wrote about in Locus (I think) not too long ago about using a blog as a database backend for a writer’s site, without having to feel compelled to blog…

I did the same thing over a year ago, set up the blog just to have a place to update information without having to dive into HTML. I had no intention of wasting my writing time with a lot of useless blogging.
Then I started blogging. It’s a curse, I tell you. Robin Hobb is right.
(And I ended up learning HTML anyway.)

I was also inspired by Cory’s articles in Locus to do the same. My website at http://www.jenniferjackson.org/ uses a blog interface to update the front news page with client reviews, sales, etc. And that’s after I had my livejournal blog running for a few years.

Matt, Jennifer: It’s really a useful tool, isn’t it?
